It’s time to settle the infamous debate on language development. Are you team Skinner or Chomsky? Or is there an alternative explanation?

What do we do as parents to squash curiosity in our children? Are there times where we should stop children in their tracks because after all curiosity kills the cat?

Join us as we discuss this quote from B.F. Skinner in Walden Two: “No one asks how to motivate a baby. A baby naturally explores everything it can get at, unless restraining forces have already been at work. And this tendency doesn't die out, it's wiped out.” How can we as parents and adults keep babies curious?

Dr Murray Sidman published Coercion and its Fallout over 50 years ago, documenting the coercive control society has on its members. How do we, as parents, create coercive environments for our children and how do we lessen aversive control?

How we do or don’t address societal norms and expectations has a lasting effect on our children....does that equate to lying to them?
